Borgward GOLIATH Blitzkarren 1924

Forget the Goliath part, this is the Borgward Blitzkarren, the first vehicle built by Borgward. It appeared in 1924. The pictured car is the sole survivor.

I think that is a collage of a 1924 text with a picture from the 1950s. The background architecture is definitely postwar. I guess the photo was taken when a Blitzkarren was restored for his 65th (?) birthday. Below a 1924 ad, the unrestored Blitzkarren in the 1950s and another picture of the restored one.
